This is a friendly note to members who are using free email addresses and/or have not been checking their emails lately to verify that it is still receiving emails from the forums and is still functional.
The server has been getting a consistent amount of bounced emails, with reasons ranging from invalid email addresses to exceeded quota. Those who subscribe to topics and do not regularly check their emails are advised to check them now and either make sure you email addresses work or clean up your inbox if you exceeded your mail quota.
I will begin to inform members who have bouncing email addresses to fix them. Anyone who does not respond or does not take the time to fix their emails will be demoted to "Confirmation Required" status and will not be able to post or reply to forum messages, or use the forum features.
Also note that people with a "Confirmation Required" status get regularly purged from the system, requiring that they re-register. To avoid this, please check the integrity of your email addresses now. Thanks
